Previous knowledge required: A working knowledge of English parts of speech and how it relates to Latin cases; 1st/2nd/3rd noun/adjective declensions and cases; 1st/2nd /3rd/4th and Esse/Posse verb conjugations in the past, future, and imperfect tenses; rudimentary vocabulary including common conjunctions and prepositions; demonstrative pronouns (hic/ille/iste and idem) and personal pronouns (ego/nos, etc). If this is your first class with me, I will send you a vocabulary list prior to class starting so you can refer to it as we work.  If you've had Latin classes with me, bring your handouts/notebook to class!!

Today's class will be spent learning reflexive and intensive pronouns and adjectives, as well as possessive reflexive. These mimic other pronouns and can be a little difficult to recognize, but we are going to practice and compare them while learning how to use them in sentences. This is a very handy lesson as it vividly correlates to English grammar. Latin is so useful that way! We will also review vocabulary and practice using our growing and improving Latin syntax! 

This is a very interactive class. We do repetition, drills, and sight reading. We discuss Roman culture, linguistics, and how Latin still affects many modern languages. Education is a conversation, and your voice is valued. Please feel free to share ideas, comments, and ask questions!

No 3rd party accounts are necessary. We do use the free online resource (Latin Wiktionary) as our dictionary and case-checker!
